“A split develops between the ego and the body which is controlled by a band of tension at the base of the skull, breaking the energetic connection between the head and the body – between thinking and feeling.” — Alexander Lowen

“Perhaps the most heinous manifestation of this scientific medievalism has been the elimination of the term psychosomatic from recent editions of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), the official publication of the American Psychiatric Association. One might as well eliminate the word infection from medical dictionaries.” — John E. Sarno, M.D.

“While both water and iron can be measured by a common standard of specific gravity, the floating of iron upon water depends on the shape of the iron, and the shape cannot be given in terms of specific gravity, nor does it alter the specific gravity of either the water or the iron. Yet the shape relationships can keep iron from sinking in water, and the standards of measurement are of another type than those for measuring specific gravity. Science will ever be plagued by those who insist upon understanding that which they do not understand in terms of which they think they do understand.” — Milton H. Erickson

“Byron’s Don Juan I read on an Arab dhow sailing north from Aden up the Red Sea to Port Tewfik on the Suez Canal. Boswell’s Life of Samuel Johnson I read while broke on the beach in San Pedro. In Singapore, I came upon a copy of The Annals and Antiquities of Rajahstan by James Tod. It was in the library of a sort of YMCA for seamen, the name of which I’ve forgotten but which any British seaman of the time would remember, for the British had established them in many ports, for sailors ashore.” — Louis L’Amour

There’s definitely a gender polarity between the left and right kidneys and the left and right lobes of the lungs.

Left-sided organs (spleen, pancreas, etc.) have a tendency to male Cognitive Shocks, and right-sided organs (gall bladder, liver, etc.) have a tendency to female ones, but only Body Dowsing can tell for sure.

Also, many of these organs in more than a few people aren’t where anatomy books claim they are (situs inversus, etc.).

“There are no side effects — only effects. Those we thought of in advance, the ones we like, we call the main, or intended, effects, and take credit for them. The ones we didn’t anticipate, the ones that came around and bit us in the rear — those are the ‘side effects’.”

Remember to “Mind the Skin” — Body Dowsing can easily find the “Cause of the Cause of the Cause.”

I woke up this past Saturday with pain in my right toe. It’s turned into what I believe to be gout. The night before I had told my husband not to travel home for a party as I did not believe he was doing it “for me” as he claimed. I felt clear with my request. There was no “incident” with my toe and I wondered straight off if it’s psychosomatic in nature. Also wondering if there’s a way to know where our organs are.

John Sarno, M.D., phrased it well (except for the oxygen explanation) …

“The type of symptom and its location in the body is not important so long as it fulfills its purpose of diverting attention from what is transpiring in the unconscious. On occasion, however, the choice of symptom location may even contribute to the diversion process, something that is common with psychosomatic disorders. For example, a man who experiences the acute onset of pain in his arm while swinging a tennis racket will naturally assume that it was something about the swing that hurt his arm. The reality is that his brain has decided that the time is ripe for a physical diversion and chooses that moment to initiate the pain, because the person will assume that it stems from an injury, not a brain-generated physical condition that caused the pain. How does the brain manage this trick? It simply renders a tendon in the arm slightly oxygen deprived, which results in pain. This is how ‘tennis elbow’ got its name. If that sounds bizarre, diabolical, or self-destructive, you will see later that it is in reality a protective maneuver. My colleagues and I have observed it in thousands of patients.”
